Archive pages
Learn how to archive, unarchive, and delete pages in Prismic.
In Prismic, there are two methods for demoting pages: archiving and deleting.
- Archiving: Removes a page from your API and moves it to the Archive tab of the Page Builder. Also called unpublishing.
- Deleting: Completely removes the page from your repository. Deletion is permanent and irreversible.
Archive a page
To archive a page, you can either click the Unpublish purple button in the top-right corner of the Page Builder, or click the three dots button next to it and select Archive this page. The page will be sent to the Archive tab and removed from your website.
Unarchive a page
To unarchive a page, first go to the Archive tab, then click on the page you wish to unarchive. Modify it and click Save. The option to publish it will appear.
Move a page from archive to draft
It is possible to unarchive a page as a draft without publishing it.
To do so, first find the page in the Archive tab. Open the page’s history pane by clicking on View history in the top-left corner underneath the page’s display name. Select the most recent version, and click Restore.
The page will be restored as a draft in the Work tab.
Delete a page
You can only delete a page that is already archived.
To delete a page, go to the Archive tab. Select the page(s) you wish to delete in the list, and click the trash can icon in the top-right corner.
The page(s) will be removed from your repository.
